On number 3, annotate returns the annotated queryset, not the particular
result of the annotation. The annotation is added to each individual object
in the set.

Turning that into an integer doesn't make sense, because num_publications
is a property of *each individual *entry in the set, not the set itself.

articles[0].num_publications() would return the number of publications
associated with the first article in the set, for example.
